Why reports uses the .eps format when emailing a report?

Hi
If you select to send a report by email, it automatically
chooses the .eps format to send the report as an attachment.
I know it stands for "encapsulated post script" (I think...),
but is there a way to send in PDF format for example?
Till now, the user has to generate the report in PDF format
and then, manually, create an email and attach such file.
And what program opens such type of file (eps)?
Thanks
Luis Cabral

The .eps format is a postscript format type used to send directly to the printer. I really don't know why this format is good but ...
A way to send an e-mail attachment in HTML, PDF or RTF format, is setting the parameters DESTYPE and DESFORMAT, but this way enforces you to create another way to trigger the e-mail cause the button e-mail in Oracle Reports uses .eps by default.
I suggest you to create a parameter form with the format option and trigger the reports by RUN_PRODUCT built-in. If you don't need to preview the report, set the properties in the parameter form and trigger the report normally.
DESTYPE=MAIL
DESFORMAT=PDF or DESFORMAT=HTML or DESFORMAT=RTF

  • Why IPHOTO album will not keep the template format when share to IDVD.

    Why IPHOTO album will not keep the template format when share to IDVD. Also, could be better if IPHOTO Album could access "inspector tool" with ability to change the slide duration time and apply a random "Transitions" to specific slide.

    Are you sharing an album of photos or a slideshow to iDVD?  If it's an album then what you get in iDVD is just a slideshow with the photos in it where you have to set the transition and slide timing unless you add music and select fit to audio.
    Don't know what you mean by the template format unless you're referring to the themes in a slideshow? If you share a slideshow the ss is converted to a Quicktime movie file and that is added to the iDVD menu window.  No changes are possible.

    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

  • Always use the default account when composing new messages box missing in Outlook 2010 after updating the product key.

    I have 2 accounts in outlook 2010. 1 is for me and the other I have delegate access to. When I am in the delegates email and want to reply it automatically uses the account the email is in. So if I am in my email, the from is me but if I am in the delegates
    email and hit reply the from is them. Now this is not working and I can't figure out how to get it to work. The only thing that changes is that office asked me to activate recently, which is weird since I have had this same computer with the same version of
    office for almost a year now. I did a ton of searching and came across an option on the internet: "Always use the deafult account when composing new messages" but this option is not there on my computer. I checked another computer I have with Office
    2010 also and the option is available so it must be something to do with the office activation because I haven't done it on this computer yet. PLEASE HELP!!!

    Seems this is a hot issue recently, I've post a reply to another thread with the similar topic, please reference that:

    "Your options are:

    Do you mean a trial account from .Mac? (DotMac)
    "Get an AIM Screen name and set it to Display what you want as you set it up.
    The Screen name can be whatever yu want but you can also set it to display something else as well."
    I had thought about this, but it seems other people have already chosen the screen name "pinksharkmark" and virtually every variation of it I can think of. So that isn't an option for me. As for getting it to display something else as well, do you mean that if I were to get an AIM screen name like "CromulentCat" I could somehow log in to iChat under the AIM account "CromulentCat" yet get iChat to represent me to my Buddies as "PinkSharkMark"? Because I have to admit I don't see how that can be done. It appears as if iChat displays to anyone chatting with you precisely the account name you logged in under and nothing else. So if you logged in using a .Mac account, then you are displayed as "[email protected]" while if you logged in under an AIM account, you are displayed as "CromulentCat". But that's it that's all... there is no way to change CromulentCat to PinkSharkMark.
    Thanks very much for taking the time to reply, though.

  • How to pass in variables using the command line when starting ActionScript native app

    How do I pass in variables or startup arguments using the command line when starting an ActionScript native app? For example, I have my app call MySweetWidget and it has been compiled with Adobe AIR captive runtime so now I have MySweetWidget.exe.
    In the command line, I am calling MySweetWidget.exe and would like to pass in variables or properties to the application. I would assume that those variables are then read from the loaderInfo.parameters object.
    Please let me know if the Adobe AIR runtime supports passing in parameters to the native runtime. If so, I would like help determining the correct format of how to pass in the variables. Then would you read those from the loaderinfo.parameters object?
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    I found the answer to my own question:
    Yes it is a supported feature. It is documented on the following page:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/desktop/NativeApp lication.html#event:invoke
    When you subscribe to the invoke event of the NativeApplication it will subsequently dispatch the event and you read the e.arguments Array object to get the startup arguments passed into the native application.

  • Why we use the LDAP Authentication over the DB authentication?

    Hi All,
    Why we use the LDAP Authentication over the DB authentication?
    Any specific region is for that?
    When we use LDAP do we need DB authentication again or it will be optional?
    In same case in ADSI do the DB authentication is optional or compulsory .
    Thanks in advance
    Tusar

    LDAP / AD authentication is useful if you already use it in your organisation and you'll find that most orgs have some form of user authentication already in place.
    Do users in your company have to log into to their machines every morning? If so, why not use those credentials to control access to Siebel? It's a way of providing a single directory of employee authentication information available across applications, keeping maintenance and change costs down.
    When you use LDAP authentication, you specify an AD object that contains a set of DB authentication details so that the component can access the Siebel database. In Siebel 8, you can directly specify those details in the security profile. As such, you only then have to maintain a single set of DB specific authentication details: much easier to manage. You can always switch back to DB authentication if you want to, but you'd have to go through all users accounts and create them with the same login and password specified in AD.

    Try the alternatives, or wait for reports by the users who already migrated. For example, Capture One is more similar to Aperture than Lightroom:

    I'll keep my main libraries in Aperture, as long as it compatible with the operating system.  If that no longer works, I'll start a new main library with digikam. If there is no native Mac application, that offers what I need for my workflow, I'll switch back to open source software.

    Why won't iPad video open when emailed to Windows desktop?

    Hey there Ray_J,
    I understand that you want iTunes to be opening every time you connect your phone to your computer. You may wish to adjust this setting in your iTunes preferences to affect this behavior:
    Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically
    Prevent devices from automatically syncing with this iTunes library when a device is connected. To sync a device, click the Sync button when the device is connected.
    iTunes 12 for Mac: iTunes Devices preferences

    If this is unchecked, iTunes will open automatically when you connect an iOS device. Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!

  • Cameras that use the AVCHD format

    I was trying to decide, for a possible future purchase, between the Panasonic AG-AF100 and the Sony FS 100UK.
    However, I am having reservations now. I am not conversant with the intricacies of the various codecs and someone mentioned in an article that thet would not use the AVCHD format under any circumstances. Probably a biased viewpoint no doubt but it has me thinking and now hesitant.
    Can anyone advise me as to whether this is a detriment when thinking of these two cameras since they both use the AVCHD format? At the moment I am using a Canon XH A1s.
    I hope this is not a dumb post. Please go easy on me :-)
    Trevor

    Well, I can tell you that there is a substantial improvement when going from HDV to AVCHD. It's very visible. I just cut some HDV footage for the first time in years yesterday, after cutting mostly AVCHD for the last 3-4 years now. It was painful to look at, even though it was 1080.
    As for AVCHD in general, it's not the easiest format to edit. It is highly compressed. That being said, Premiere Pro CS6 and a quality Nvidia GPU combine to make editing AVCHD almost a non-issue nowadays.
    I know plenty of folks who shoot on AVCHD cameras and bypass the compression by recording to a separate recorder via HD-SDI or HDMI. Generally speaking it's for color correction latitude, since most serious filmmakers would prefer to capture 4:2:2 than 4:2:0.
    However, I also know quite a few adventurers who do features and record directly to the AVCHD media on the AF100. One guy I know has even had it checked out by Technicolor and they said it looked great.
    Here's one of his features shot on the AF100, direct to the AVCHD media onboard:
    I know he recently did some other work with a Canon 5D and recording off the camera but then the 5D is bit of a different beast than the AF100 or FS100.
    As for choosing between the Sony and Panasonic....well, I'm almost as big of an Adobe fanboy as I am a Panasonic fanboy. I've used the Panasonic cameras for years and I really have found that the layout of the camera controls, the depth of the camera controls and the overall image from Panasonic cameras is excellent. I've never been much impressed with Sony gear, it used to be a lot worse (when you used a Sony camera, you used to pretty much be obligated to use Sony media, Sony hardware, etc). But I've found Sony cameras to be a bit less user friendly, with a lot of things either buried in menus or not available at all when compared to their Panasonic counterparts. Just one man's opinion, take it or leave it.
    I really like the images from the AF100, we've worked with it a few times now and it's quite versatile. There are, however, more options coming soon. If you are interested in being on the bleeding edge of technology, Blackmagic Design is soon releasing their first ever camera, a 2.5K sensor camera for about $3,000. Like the AF100, it doesn't include a lens but can work with most any glass out there. However, it IS the company's first foray into any kind of camera, and it's completely untested by the user community at large so if you need a camera with a confirmed workflow, it ain't ready for primetime yet.

  • I am grappling with the .eps format issue

    I have thousands of .eps files, from years past, linked to hundreds of layout files. These were created in either Illustrator or Photoshop, but not with OSX all of these files must be associated with one or the other application. This means that if I choose Photoshop I must change each Illustrator .eps file back to open in Illustrator manually in the Get Info box. This is terribly inconvenient, and I am wondering if anyone has a better solution.
    BTW I no longer make .eps links for my layouts, I use .ai or .psd. But this does not solve my problem with older files. I am hoping some other poor soul has found a better solution.

    The only solution I can see is naming the extension differently to seperate the Illustrator and Photoshop versions of the .eps format.
    Try .epsf and .epsi  on a duplicates of a file, change it's Get Info to one program or the other and test it out.
    If it works, then you can rename the extension of your eps to +f or +i to open into "F" for Photoshop and "I" for Illustrator.
    worth a shot.
    If not head to the Adobe forums, likely someone there has a hack.
